SUMMARY:Institute for Collecting Pedagogies by the Eternal Learners and Ignorant Teachers Cooperative
DESCRIPTION:November 17\, 2025\, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.\, Opening ReceptionNovember 10\, 2025 to December 3\, 2025\, Experimental Pedagogies Symposium \n\n\n\nReception: Monday\, November 17\, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.Gary R. Libby University Gallery\, University Galleries\, The University of Florida \n\n\n\nThe University Galleries at the University of Florida present the Institute for Collecting Pedagogies by the Eternal Learners and Ignorant Teachers Cooperative\, a collaborative project formed through a seminar led by Nicolás Paris\, who is the 2025 Kislak Family Foundation Artist in Residence at the Center for Latin American Studies (LAS). \n\n\n\nThe exhibition brings together students and Paris in an ongoing exploration of how artistic practice can act as a space for learning. Rather than presenting finished works\, the gallery becomes a flexible environment for exchange\, dialogue\, and experimentation. Visitors are invited to consider how knowledge is created\, shared\, and transformed through collective processes.  \n\n\n\nParis\, an internationally renowned Colombian artist\, has long been interested in rethinking education through art. His projects often blur the boundaries between the classroom and the studio\, creating open-ended encounters between artists\, audiences\, and ideas. For his exhibition at the University Gallery the space transforms into a functioning classroom and hosts a symposium featuring guest speakers. This gathering will expand the exhibition into a living forum where learning and artmaking unfold together. \n\n\n\nThe cooperative’s approach draws inspiration from experimental pedagogies in Latin America and embraces uncertainty as a productive condition. Through a series of participatory installations\, discussions\, and workshops the seminar examined how education itself can become an artistic medium and how collective learning can shape new forms of artistic and cultural practice. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition is possible thanks to the generous support from The Center for Latin American Studies and the School of Art +Art History (SA+AH)\, University of Florida\, Gainesville. The University Galleries is especially thankful to Leonardo A. Villalón and Luis Felipe Lomelí\, Interim Director and Associate Director of Academic Programs of The Center for Latin American Studies\, for their support. Professor Paris thanks the following persons for their collaboration and contributions to the exhibition: Maria del Pilar Arrieta\, Ferney Yesid Asprilla Mena\, Marina Burgner\, Yury Yiseth Casas Córdoba\, Salenka Elizabeth Chinchin Pinos\, Charis Cochran\, Gabriel De la Torre\, Jarred Elrod\, Ramiro Xavier Figueroa García\, Jesús Fuenmayor\, Alanis Marie González Maldonado\, Elise Goosen\, Luis Felipe Gómez Lomelí\, Komal Goswami\, Camila Gutiérrez\, Siraye Herron\, Cordelia Kapfer\, Nicole Luzardo\, Mario A. Mutis R.\, Isabel Cristina Paz Romero\, Diana Pérez\, Carolina Simon-Pardo\, Ronan Shaw\, Shelby Torrence\, Brigitte Trabbic\, Artis Trice\, Turner Toliuszis\, Leonardo Villalon\, Marlyn Zuluaga Egas\, among others. \n\n\n\nExhibition-related ProgrammingReception: Monday\, November 17\, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.Events: Experimental Pedagogies symposium between November 10 and December 3\, 2025 \n\n\n\nThe graduate program in Art History at the University of Florida offers a global art historyprogram covering a breadth of content from across time and space.

The UG advances the School of Art + Art History’s commitment to the visual arts by offering an experimental space to bring people together around art and ideas\, improving accessibility and inclusivity through direct student and community engagement; increasing the school’s visibility as a center for critical discourse around artistic research\, production\, and scholarship\, leading with preeminent programming. \n\n\n\nUniversity Galleries are comprised of three art galleries.
